In some situations, not all type of information is available, or its declaration would take an inappropriate amount of effort. These may occur for values from code written without TypeScript or a 3rd party library. In these cases, we might want to opt out of type-checking. Unlikeunknown, v...
We may find ourselves defining the same Type in different places, which is not ideal, considering all the bad things we often hear about code duplication, but what can we do? The answer to that isType Aliases. TypeScript allows us to reuse certain types by defining them the same way we ...
Introduced in TypeScript 1.6, the as keyword is used for type assertions, which are a way to tell the TypeScript compiler that you, as a developer, have more information about the type of a value than the compiler can infer. There are two forms of type assertions in TypeScript: ...

Enums: One benefit of adding enums to JavaScript is that that would close a gap with TypeScript – which already has enums. There are currently two draft proposals (which aren’t at a formal stage, yet). One is by Rick Waldron, the other one is by Ron Buckton. In both proposals,...
Mongoose 5.11.0 was released on November 30, 2020and includes 17 new features, including 5 community contributions. The biggest change isofficially supported TypeScript bindings, but one of the ones we're most excited about is customizable casting logic for individual paths. In this article, I'...
Type Volume Volume is a dynamic property that can change over time, while the other properties listed are static and will never change. The properties may have the following values: The property values represent the state of the object — in this case, the values above represent the state of...
I’m either writing JS or TypeScript, or hacking on large compiler codebases in C++1, or writing ECMAScript specification language. Frankly, that is fine with me. C’s time may not be over yet, but I wouldn’t be sad if I never had to write another line of it. (Hopefully this ...
TypeScript 3.8 is supported. Internationalization, via i18n, now supports RTL locale information. Ivy performance has been improved by removing the unused event argument in listener instructions. Previously, Ivy generated an $event argument, even if it was not being used by the listener expressions....
